Please don't let it rain on my parade!

Tomorrow this time I'll be on a train making my way to the god forsaken little village of Srikakulam!!! Its a place I've known off ever since I can remember my cook & his family going to their "mullook" when we came to Bangalore every Christmas. But that's about all I know, till I googled it today!

About 9 or 10 years ago, I planned to do a trip there for (my cook) Jiggy's older daughter's wedding. Unfortunately being in college, and bound by standard holidays I didn't make it. This Sunday is his younger daughter's wedding. And if all goes as per plan - and floods don't leave me stranded somewhere along the way - I'll finally make it there by Saturday afternoon. Here's a satellite image of the globe... the pink star is where I'm going to, and I've tried to show you the Indian Peninsular!




Hope I survive the rains, and pray that my dear friend Yespari starts her life as a happy wife!

In the jungle, the mighty jungle the lion sleeps tonight....

I guess I'm not a lion, coz I didn't get much sleep in the mighty jungle last weekend!!! I had an excellent time at Jungle Retreat - by far the most insane weekend! NO, I didn't see any wild cats! Just wild peeps :-P

Mighty thanx to Mr.Tote, Bananarana, Rogun Sar & James Sar for making it purfic ;-)

The sea in my tummy!

You shall have a fishy, in a little dishy,
You shall have a fishy,
When the boat comes in!


Mr. Tote and I just indulged in the most sinful sea-food lunch at Kudla this afternoon. I can barely hold my head up, and I have a meeting in 20 minutes! Here's a little something to chew on:
Butter, garlic, pepper crabs
Masala fried pomphret
Fish thali
Prawn thali

We barely touched the thalis - so you'll know what my flatmates will be having for dinner this weekend!!!!!

I'm off to Jungle Retreat with Mr. Tote - and may be finally I'll see a leopard - or may be not! There's no point being hopeful in the wild, its when you least expect 'em that they show up (these big cats!)!!

...does anyone know what the word for "high on food" is???

Raver Hop!

So here's the story of the newly discovered psychedellic froggy in drugged out South America!!!! Take a closer look at it...


It'll give Crazy Frog a leap for its money... ting ting ting ting!!!
